Re: EBAY Wastegate

You will have more performance w/an external wastegate.
W/an internal wastegate,it's creates turbulent exhaust gas where the turbine wheel is exiting it's own exhaust.(slows down the turbine wheel). You can have desent boost control w/an internal, but for better performance it is wiser to run an external. :2cents:

That is a good looking wastegate & nice features.

So what do you think of THAT wastegate?

I think it will work. Just like my cheap $ BOV I got from Ebay,it works fine,some people will say you get what you pay for,but there seems to be good quality knock off pieces out there that work just fine.

Turbonetics, I heard @ one time used to have problems w/there wastegates & those are pricey.

Who wants to spend $400 +,when you can get a lower priced unit that works just fine. :2cents:

If you go external, it is best to run a separate exhaust pipe & a muffler (just to be quiet) just for the wastegate.

Or if you want to plumb back into your exhaust sytem, you shoud do so @ least 18-24" away from the back of the turbine wheel.
